Abstract

One of the most important and strategic activities that IUPAC carries out is to promote the use of best practice and the most effective tools for chemistry education. That education includes public understanding and appreciation of the roles and achievements of chemistry, especially among the young. The Committee on Chemistry Education (CCE) is one of most popular and active bodies within IUPAC. In addition to its titular and associate members, numerous national representatives regularly take part in its meetings, which are among the best attended in every IUPAC General Assembly. The Union, through CCE, promotes best practice in chemistry education through the organization of international conferences and workshops, by providing guidance to countries that ask for assistance with their chemistry curricula, and by promoting an understanding and appreciation of the subject through programs such as the Young Ambassadors for Chemistry and the Flying Chemists.
